In the 41st minute, Ismaila Sarr opened the scoring for the away team after taking advantage of Joe Gomez's sloppiness in a situation where the ball was hung into the penalty area, finishing with his left foot to determine success.
Before the end of the first half, Liverpool conceded a second goal in the 45th minute. From Crystal Palace's good coordination, Sarr was given a very good opportunity. And he did not miss the opportunity to score to increase the score to 2-0.
In the second half, Liverpool tried to pressure Palace in the hope of finding a goal. However, against the visitors' tight defense, the "Red Brigade" was completely helpless.
By the 79th minute, Liverpool had only 10 men left on the pitch after Nallo was sent off for illegally blocking Devenny in a dangerous run.
In the 87th minute, Pino sealed a 3-0 victory for Crystal Palace with an accurate curler in the penalty area, leaving goalkeeper Woodman completely helpless.
This defeat marked the first time since February 1934, Liverpool lost a domestic cup match at Anfield by 3 goals without scoring any, repeating their poor performance after 91 years.
Since September 27, Liverpool have lost more matches than any other team in five major European competitions in all competitions (six).
